Chapter 0285: People Become Something Else When They Die
”Now is not the time to discuss who is the murderer, leave those to the police, what I’m worried about is Jiang Ling’s psychological treatment.” The female nurse was helpless.
”I’ll solve this matter, but you have to give me some time.” Chen Ge roughly understood what happened, the case described by the female nurse was full of doubts, and many places were worth scrutinizing.
”You’ll solve it? You’re going to take Fan Yu away?”
”I mean, I’ll come to cure Jiang Ling’s heart disease.” Chen Ge was the person who understood Fan Yu the most, and he was clear that everything Fan Yu said was true.
The female nurse froze for a moment, “What are you going to cure with? It’s not like you’re a doctor.”
”It’s not like there’s anything to lose for you guys to try.” Chen Ge stopped ignoring the female nurse and entered the house alone.
He possessed rich experience in dealing with severe ghosts and understood how to gain their goodwill.
”The murder of their parents should be the knot in Jiang Ling’s and her sister’s hearts, so as long as we find the murderer and bring him to justice, we should be able to harvest their sisters’ goodwill.” Judging from Fan Yu’s drawing, Jiang Ling’s sister shouldn’t be too weak, and was most likely Red Clothes.
If he could get on good terms with the other party, or take it a step further and include the other party in the House of Horrors, then Chen Ge would be more confident that he could survive the period of time that Zhang Ya was sleeping.
Entering the house, Chen Ge tried to communicate with Jiang Ling, but the girl didn’t pay any attention to him at all, only occasionally looking at him with a very frightened look.
”What do you want to know, I’ll ask.” Fan Yu walked over to the girl and pointed at Chen Ge, “He’s a good person, and he can also see your sister.”
”Really?” The girl innocently looked at Chen Ge, who hurriedly nodded his head.
Taking this opportunity, Chen Ge asked a few questions towards the girl and said that he would help her find her sister.
Hearing that Chen Ge was going to help her find her sister, Jiang Ling was very happy, and she even gave Chen Ge the trampled spider in her hand, saying that her sister looked like this.
Chen Ge did not reject the child’s kindness and solemnly put the spider’s corpse into a plastic bottle to carry with her.
Drawing closer, Chen Ge wanted to extract more information about the girl.
But the more he inquired, the more doubt he felt in his heart, the girl may be because she was too young, she could not remember a lot of things, and she spoke in a forward and backward manner.
Asked half a day, he only figured out the girl’s former address, and her sister’s name – Zhu Xinru.
Tossed to more than nine o’clock, Chen Ge left accompanied by the female nurse.
Returning to New Century Paradise, Chen Ge packed his backpack and stuffed a bunch of things into it, including the Skull Crushing Hammer and Tiny, and he decided that he would go to the place that Jiang Ling had mentioned tonight to take a look.
”Take this thing with you too, it might come in handy.”
Chen Ge stuffed the plastic bottle containing the spider’s corpse into his backpack as well, then took a taxi and rushed to Lin Guan Village, which was located at the border between the western suburbs of Jiujiang and the county.
In the cab, Chen Ge tried to dial Team Li’s number to see if he could get some information related to the case, but to his surprise, the other party’s cell phone was turned off.
”Is it on a mission?” Chen Ge looked at his watch, “It’s not easy being a cop.”
It was only halfway through the night that Chen Ge found Lin Guan Village, which was really too remote, located in the middle of a mountainous area, and even the roads had just been repaired in recent years.
It was cold at night in the mountains, the night wind whistled, and people in this place seemed to be used to going to bed early.
It was only after eleven o’clock, the village was already dark, there was not even a single light, it did not look like there were people living there at all.
”There’s not even a streetlight or a kiosk, how are we going to find someone to ask for directions? The place that little girl said seems to be in the mountains, it’s easy for me to get lost going into the mountains alone at night.”
It was hard to reach the place, but Chen Ge realized that things were a bit complicated, he walked along the recently repaired cement road towards the village.
After walking about a few dozen meters away, the concrete road turned into a dirt road, this village had only been repaired on the outside, the inside was still in shambles, and many of them were old houses that were a bit old.
”It doesn’t feel right! Why is this village eerie?” Chen Ge stopped and didn’t continue to walk forward as he pulled the backpack zipper open, revealing the handle of the skull crushing hammer.
”The doors of many houses are covered in ash, there should be a lot of empty houses in this village, so I guess there are very few people living here.” He found a random house, and when he ran to the door, he realized that there was a large lock wrapped around the door, with the lock hanging outside the door, “If there were people living in the house, the lock definitely wouldn’t be hanging outside the door, what the hell has happened in this village?”
He slowly backed up and was about to leave the village first when the two cell phones in his pockets suddenly vibrated at the same time.
”What’s going on?”
Chen Ge first took out his black cell phone and glanced at it, and the alert message on the screen showed that the completion level of the third patient building trial mission had increased to eighty-seven percent.
”Looks like another patient has fallen.”
He then opened his own cell phone and found that it was a call from Team Li.
”Uncle San Bao, I thought you had blacked me out, scared me.”
”There’s a mission tonight, all cell phones of all involved are turned off.” Team Li’s voice was tired, but you could hear that he was in a good mood, “I’ll give you some good news, Xiong Qing, the patient in Room 8 of the third sick building, has fallen into the net.”
”Caught Xiong Qing?!”
”You should feel lucky, this guy has been wandering around New Century Paradise many times in the last few days, presumably having thoughts about you.”
”Where is he? Can I see him for a moment?”
”Being resuscitated, that lunatic attacked multiple police officers and was shot in the shoulder and thigh by someone from the city precinct’s criminal investigation team, he’s already unconscious.”
”Uncle Li, catching the culprit is a good thing, but you have to be careful too, after all, safety comes first.”
”Cut the crap with me, what are you looking for me for?” Team Li knew Chen Ge too well, once Chen Ge started talking softly, it was definitely something.
”Then I’ll be blunt, half a year ago there was a poisoning and murder case in Lin Guan Village in the western suburb, do you still have any impression?” Chen Ge was not polite and opened his mouth.
”I have an impression, but it wasn’t a case within my jurisdiction.”
”It happened in the western suburbs!” Chen Ge did not expect Team Li to answer so crisply.
”Lin Guan Village that’s all the way to the mountains.” Team Li was helpless, “I advise you not to investigate randomly, there have been strange events in that village, and at that time there was also a big problem with that case, originally it was the city precinct Yan team they were following.”
”Something strange has happened?”
”There’s no way to tell you about those.”
”Then you can always tell me about the poisoning case half a year ago, right? Fan Yu and the little girl who survived at the time lived in the same orphanage, and I did it for their sake.”
”The little girl …… “Team Li paused for a moment, and his tone suddenly became solemn: “Chen Ge, you’d better stay away from that little girl.”
”I admit that there’s something strange about her, but there’s no need to purposely avoid her.”
”According to Team Yan’s and their investigation, the only one with the ability to commit murder that was finally locked down was that little girl.” Team Li finished and then added, “She once said something very special.”
